Stick to a Sleep Schedule

Stick to a Sleep Schedule

Even if sleeping in on Saturday sounds like the greatest idea in the world, keeping a consistent bedtime and wake time — even on weekends — regulates your body's internal clock, which helps you fall asleep and stay down for the count.

Power Down the Screens

Power Down the Screens

That Insta post can definitely wait until morning. The blue light emitted from electronic devices (and your TV too) throws off your circadian rhythms and disrupts sleep, according to a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Store all electronic devices somewhere other than your bedroom.

Eat Smart At Night

Eating late is less of a sleeping issue than what you're actually putting in your mouth. Foods that contain the amino acid tryptophan — found in turkey, eggs, chicken, fish, and nuts — have long been known to make you feel drowsy, according to a study published in the Journal of Psychiatric Research.
